first accomodation in Perth
 
Hi can anyone recomend where to stay in Perth when you first arrive as I understand that renting straight away can be a problem. My brother has offered to put us up , but we are a family of 4 with 2 teenagers (he has no Kids!) and I don't want to ruin a good relationship.

Smart guy!Better to get your own place even though difficult at first.As long as you don't do longer than a week at your brothers then everything should stay sweet.
Look at poms in perth lovely homes with pools and close to all amin so boys should be ok.
Good luck.All very scary but works out fine.

We booked a two week rental through movetoperth. Really took the pressure off as provided everything we needed. Gave us time to get organised. Just make sure all bills are included as I know that Poms in Perth rates don't include the bills!!
